Bump.....
That is very nice to hear. Please send your brother my sincere thanks.
I can't imagine going through something like that, and am very thankful that we have so many brave Americans who are willing to on our behalf.
Like I said, they're all heros to me!
Those are amazing photos of events that I can't even begin to imagine. Thank you for your service to our country.
Thank you for your service, and please read my post #44 as it certainly applies to you and everyone you served with.
Bud Day is THE MAN!!!! His son is a superb person too, and very modest of his own achievements and his Dads. I've had the pleasure of flying with they younger and hearing the elder speak at Squadron Officer School, Maxwell AFB back in 1998.
Bud will hand them their asses. Bring it on!
Oh, and by the way.... where the hell do we donate to arm CMOH winner Day with some cash for his impending battle with Mr. Kerry? Anyone???
Glad you asked. I'd like that info, also. We owe alot to the SwiftBoat Vets.
Hats off to Aloha Ronnie and the heroes of Ia Drang. One of the toughest fights ever fought by the American military. We fought it and WON!
Click the link at the top bar that says "donations."
Col. "Bud" Day was was a FAC (Forward Air Control) "Misty" pilot who drove a F100 Super Sabre aircraft. His story of his survival after being shot down and captured is amazing.

I like the post #44, but I was no hero, I just did what any citizen would do when his country called.
